Shelter Insurance partnership with the GIA

Having great corporate partners is the key to what we do at the Global Insurance Accelerator. They provide mentors, partnerships, advice to our founders, and strategic direction for our organization. Shelter Insurance Companies was a welcome addition to our Investor group last year and we've loved working with their team (including our amazing board members John Rooney and Amanda Martin). Recently, Randa Rawlins - their President and CEO - provided her thoughts on our partnership and we're proud to work with her and her team.

"Our partnership with the GIA has been excellent. Several aspects of the program’s thoughtful design stand out. First, it provides both value to the founders and engagement opportunities to our Shelter team members. GIA creates a place where people in many stages of career development can go beyond imagining the future of insurance – they can participate in creating it. Second, we would describe it as “full service” – GIA’s small-but-mighty staff carries much of the administrative overhead for engaging in programs like this. Third, you get all this for a remarkably low price of admission. We would highly recommend adding GIA to your list of strategic partners."

We so appreciate Randa and Shelter's confidence in what we do! At the GIA, we're just about to kick off our new year and next cohort and its a great time to be involved.
